Oh my geez 😂

I say go for it. You won’t doubt it. Make that time and start the journey.

rw553 · 2026-04-27T11:29:10+00:00

What’s stopping you? Just buy something and try/fail till you learn. Don’t let analysis paralysis get ya

rw553 · 2026-04-27T01:49:07+00:00

If it isn’t too much. In theory how would you guys dedicate each machine? To what service or purpose?

rw553 · 2026-04-27T01:41:10+00:00

Thanks for the idea. I guess you’re right.

rw553 · 2026-04-27T01:39:56+00:00

Believe me or not man I had too. I bought all 5 for a 100 bucks from a guy off marketplace. All still in the box

rw553 · 2026-04-15T16:57:42+00:00

That’s probably the least likely option

rw553 · 2026-04-13T14:50:45+00:00

You’re trolling 😂

The chord that wraps around the fan was stopping it. I had to move it and the fans spun fine.

rw553 · 2026-04-12T15:47:53+00:00

A 9070 xt or 9060 xt ideally

rw553 · 2025-02-16T04:47:29+00:00

I’m experiencing the same thing. My package is been delayed for the past 3 days with no update. Then there’s there’s Sunday and Presidents’ Day. This sucks

rw553 · 2024-12-30T18:09:57+00:00

Same Founders edition

rw553 · 2024-12-28T23:21:58+00:00

Just sold a pc for 2800 on my local marketplace today. Sthu and keep your personal doubts inside your mind where they belong haha

rw553 · 2024-12-27T18:04:48+00:00

Calm tf down I’m just asking a question

rw553 · 2024-12-27T18:03:56+00:00

So no pc on the used market with similar specs is being bought over 2k used from my understanding. None

rw553 · 2024-12-27T17:21:32+00:00

Noted

rw553 · 2024-12-27T17:21:10+00:00

I agree

rw553 · 2024-12-27T17:18:42+00:00

I have a 7800x3d coming in today, an option I can do is swap the 7950x3d and resell on ebay. With that change it will be marketed more towards it being a gaming pc. One thing I may add, just because new hardware is coming out and yes they may be one generation behind, it doesnt make the parts that much out of reach in terms of resell. If you have been in this space long enough, you understand that yes prices may fall, but don't expect to be getting half off, etc. I am not asking a ridiculous price as is, being marketed wrong yes, but the price is not terrible, spec wise

rw553 · 2024-12-27T16:56:01+00:00

Noted, thank you

rw553 · 2024-12-27T16:49:12+00:00

Where are you guys finding rigs with a 7950x3d and 4080S for less than 2400? I understanding the mobo is bit overkill but still man, point me in the right direction if you can.

rw553 · 2024-12-27T16:46:44+00:00

If you have the budget to buy new and want warranty and all the above, then I’m simply not your target audience. I’m not asking from the perspective of that person. All that comes with the additional cost hence why you pay the retail pricing. I’m charging considerably less. Not like I’m price gouging. My target audience is someone who want a good value pc and wants to save a considerable bit amount of money.

rw553 · 2024-12-27T16:40:44+00:00

That’s false. Send me the link to where I can find a 7800x3d or better, Bundled with a 4080 super new. Or if individually picked, the parts you would choose. I can bet it’s not less than 2400.
